Whether you fell asleep early, stayed out too late, or simply want to watch it again, we realize it's not always possible to get your entire "Piers Morgan Live" fix from television. As an answer to this, we offer the below labor of love – "Piers Morgan Live, Rewind" – dedicated and designed to getting you caught up and connected to the conversation.

DWS: "It's disgusting. It's unconscionable"

As part of a continued discussion on potential legislation surrounding firearms, and in front of a live studio audience, on Tuesday evening "Piers Morgan Live" invited Debbie Wasserman Schultz to share her personal perspective:

"It's disgusting. It's unconscionable," said the Chairperson of the Democratic National Committee, referencing more than a dozen GOP senators who have threatened to filibuster a gun control vote. "It shows how cowardly they are, because the reason they won't give Gabby Giffords a vote, the folks in Aurora a vote, the people of Columbine and Newtown a vote, is because they're afraid, because they don't want to face the 90 percent of Americans who support making sure we can close those loopholes and prevent bad people from getting guns."

As Tuesday's program continued, Piers Morgan welcomed a panel of educated experts and newsmakers charged with further debating the notion of mandated background checks as associated with the purchase of guns.

"The ones that we currently have in place, Piers, have been woefully, painfully, poorly executed," said Republican strategist and pollster Kellyanne Conway. "We don't want to do things that just make us feel better. We want to do things that work and actually protect our children."

Abby Huntsman, meanwhile, blamed the current standstill on what she deems to be a misappropriated focus in Washington:

"I think this comes down to a number of politicians that are, frankly, more concerned about the re-election than they are about what is right for this country," said the HuffPost Live host and producer. "It's really unfortunate."

Huntsman's colleague, Marc Lamont-Hill, cautioned against speaking about the feelings in another man's heart:

"Let's not assume that everybody is operating in bad faith," said Huntsman's HuffPost Live co-host. "If we want to have a real conversation, then we can't assume that everyone who disagrees with us, operates in bad faith."

Meanwhile, as talks of a potential North Korean missile strike continue to ratchet up global fear, reporter Kyung Lah expalined the ways in which these newest threats are different from those in the past:

"The threats from Pyongyang are now coming from that young unpredictable leader [Kim Jong-un], he is untested. We simply don't know him. The rules are very different," said Lah, who was stationed in Seoul, South Korea. "Also the threats are different. They have been rapid fire, day after day after day. There's been a ratcheting up. There has been a rapid fire progression of them. Back now what appears to be the good old days of Kim Jong-Il, they were - they were a little more spaced out so it's a bit more unpredictable."

Why is this show still airing? Debate on the show is a joke as PM constantly changes subject, tries to set up obvious traps for his guests who disagree, screws up the facts and thinks his audience are brain dead, and did I mention outright ridiculing his guests right before ending the segment? I am disgusted by the show and will refrain from watching CNN.

Contrary to some of these posts, I am delighted that CNN is allowing Pierce Morgan to continue. Frankly, given most of the junk they put on this program is stellar.
Thanks to Mr Morgan an urgent issue is in the spot light. The gun issue must be front and center and we need to bring out the truth....this Country is run by two sources 1) NRA and, unfortunately, 2) Zionist in Israell. We can do little about the 2nd but we sure as hell can do something about the first. I am a CT. resident and on behalf of us here in CT and ALL our children, I thank you Mr. Morgan. Keep up the pressure. Perhaps the fools will begin to listen at some point.

Piers using these poor families as pawns in a political game is disgusting!! Constantly parading these people out in front of the cameras is appalling! Does anyone really believe even universal back ground checks would do anything towards preventing another Sand Hook tragedy? Give me a break there are hundreds of millions of weapons out there already, background checks would do NOTHING for these weapons!! Anyone who is criminal and or evil and wants to harm people will be able to get a gun whenever they want! Even if you banned assault weapons ( which will never happen ) it wouldn't prevent another Sandy Hook? You would just create a giant black market for guns! He really needs to be off the air. The way he is using these people for a much bigger agenda for the left is disgusting!

I am watching PERS MORGAN. A girl from Sandy Hook is on. She mentioned about the youngest victim of Sandy Hook being shot 11 times. I know this may be so nieve. but what about banning the selling of magazines. This will not go against the second amendment. Can we have separate laws about selling bullets? Magazines? ect... Let's take a differenet approach.

What part of "Shall not be infringed" do you not understand Beth? Before responding, read and carefully consider the definitions to all the words, especially infringed. Also re-read the Declaration of Independence, considering the part about oppression and throwing off those tyrants in favor of new guards.

Maria, Do really think criminals go right out and purchase weapons from known dealers, and tell the world their name, address, and other information? Do you think, for one second, that the people about to commit mass shootings or home invasions are law abiding, and follow all gun laws ? Yes, Lets just criminalize all gun owners by making a dozen more laws that no criminal will ever follow!

The Libtards keep doing the same thing over and over. They keep saying how we need more laws when they do not enforce the ones we already have. And yes, Criminals do not join the NRA, they do not buy their weapons at Cabellas and they do not pass background checks because they buy their guns on the street or steal them. But as many times as you explain this to them it is like they just block out truth and common sense. What would you expect from a party who's primary goals are Food stamps, Abortion and Gay marriage?

Watch out now 14 people have got cut in Texas with a Utility knife...Piers will want to ban those now...... What a man stir up stuff here and then tries to get out of it by insulting guest with useless questions......CNN must be hurting for host..

Piers is mad at America because we have rights. Unlike his home country that disarm all citizens in the attempt to control them, and make them defenseless. Go look at overall violent crimes, not just those committed BY thugs with guns. Piers is part of the sheeple and ignorant of how the real world works.

ty·ran·ni·cal NRA NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION
Exercising power in a cruel or arbitrary way.
Characteristic of tyranny; oppressive and controlling.
COMPARE THE tyrannical NRA with the tyrannical US gov't
My family was persecuted for 27 years in Los Angeles and I still refuse to touch a gun.

So resisting being browbeaten makes him weak?First I heard.It's very insipid to hear Americans constantly bandy around
'idiot','moron',and 'retard'(really need to expand your vocabulary,guys)just 'cos someone has a polarising opinion which just happens to give the conduit for debate in lieu of everyone just agreeing with each other in a worldwide backslap.
